Text Phrase Identification - Determine Type Of Input?
Feb 22, 2009
I'm trying to identify if the input of a textbox is non numerical, which cannot be converted to an integer/double for calculation. I do this by converting the input1.text to ascii, and looking at the value to determine the type of input. My question is whether there is any way I can analyze the whole input character by character? Asc() only gives the ascii value of the first character, but what if the input is "9W" etc? Such inputs will pass my character test, but cannot be converted to an integer.
I'm working on a problem where i have to allow a user to input a word or phrase and then determine if it is a palindrome (a words that reads the same forwards and backwards) . It also says that the program should use a Boolean-valued function procedure named IsPalindrome that returns the value True when the word or phrase is a palindrome and the value False otherwise.
Alright. I have a project I need to complete by 11:00 am today. I need a program that will allow a user to input a phrase into a text box. Another text box to input a letter. Then I need the program to count how many times, the letter appears in the phrase. I have everything set up. I know how to count how many characters are in the string, but not how many designated letters there is.
I'm trying to find a way to have text that would be "Live" as in if a user types an incorrect phrase/letter in a text box, a message will appear prior to a "save" button being pressed. It's pretty much the same as when you're registering on these forums, it checks the availabilty of the username as you type it.
My question is whether Text Classification, Categorization and identification is one and same thing or there is difference between them, if it is not the same so what is the difference. and is it possible to make a such a program in Visual Basic? that identify text i think it is type of machine learning? am i right?
For a project I am doing i need to create a hangman game on visual basic.net. I get given the code and need to make certain changes.
I need to make it: Get a New word or phrase from a text file Be able the user to guess the whole word have some validation so you can only type in spaces and letters using their ASCII values This is what I have done so far but it is asking me to declare "i" when my teacher says we dont have to:
Dim NewPhrase As String Dim PhraseHasBeenSet As Boolean Dim PhraseGuessed As Boolean
I am trying to make a program which goes through the HTML code of a page and then searches for a certain phrase. I have gotten up to the point of executing a search on a site and then dumping the html code of the body.How would I go about doing this?
The phrase I'm looking for is "<tr><td><a href=javascript:d(87178)>Name of File</a></td><td>Date Submitted</td><td>Likelyness to work(%)</td></tr>
All I would need to do is find the number inside of the parenthesis (87178) in this example and I THINK I'm good to roll, so how would I do that?
I have a text box labled QTY, which feeds the QTY column on a datatable. the table then is ran through a function that takes the data and converts it to a string which my production machine can read. My problem is this, and its probably really simple (these problems usually are) how to i force the user to use a specific type of input on the txtbox so they would have to put the QTY in the format of 01 02 03 etc etc, i have it set to default to 00 but i want to force the user to haver to input 2 chars.
I am trying to navigate the URL to an applet login interface. Is there a way to determine if the applet is ready to take input? You know when Java is loading. My timing is not right, and I want to be able to make it stable by determining when Java applet login object is in a ready state.
I have read through some articles on this topic but I am still cautious about this. I am all along using ASP:Textbox but I would like to know what are the things an input textbox cannot possibly perform without using a ASP:Textbox or takes much more effort to pull off?
I have a Jquery tooltip sample which uses HTML input textbox and I am not sure if I should change all my ASP:Textboxes to HTML textboxes, the things which I need to perform on this textboxes are RequiredFieldValidation as well as storing their values into the database.
Public Shared Function IsType(ctrl As Control, ByVal thisType As ??????) As Boolean Return (TypeOf ctrl Is thisType) I need a function that I can call, for example, to determine if a control is type RichTextbox.dim z as Boolean= IsType(txtBox1, RichTextBox) I ned to determine if a control is a given type (i.e., not always RichTextBox). I don't know what Type to make thisType. Can this be done?Actually I simpified the problem but if the above is answered I can write the function
I want to scan a directory and see what files are NOT bmp image files. As the file extension can lie I need to interrogate the file itself. I found some code here [url]...?ID=112 that does exactly this however it was written for VB5 and is 13 years out of date! I tried compiling it however VB 2010 baulked and I don't have the expertise to make it work.
How can I programatically determine if a file with a certain extension (XLS, for example) is really an Excel file and not a VBS file, for example, that has the XLS extension?
I need to check a value within the registry. The application (Cisco VPN) is a 32bit app so uses Wow6432Node when installed on 64bit operating systems.What would be the best method of selecting which string to use? Checking the OS for x64, attempting to read one and then the other if the first fails? Or is there a better method?
Dim keyName64 As String = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareWow6432NodeCisco SystemsVPN Client" Dim keyName32 As String = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareCisco SystemsVPN Client"
Using .net 4.0 framework?:
Dim registryKey As RegistryKey If Environment.Is64BitOperatingSystem = True Then registryKey = registryKey.OpenBaseKey(Microsoft.Win32.RegistryHive.LocalMachine, RegistryView.Registry64) Else registryKey = RegistryKey.OpenBaseKey(Microsoft.Win32.RegistryHive.LocalMachine, RegistryView.Registry32) End If
I am converting a VB.Net application to C#. Everything else is going great. Except this bit. I have a function which builds menus,sub menus and seperators from a database. It can build a MenuStrip or a ContextMenuStrip which can then be assigned to a form.
This means that menus can be extensive and conpmex but managed outside the application, which I also use as part of my security access model. All menus are controlled from the database externally, it also means I can develop visual tools (Treeviews etc) to manage user menus. The application uses menus extensively which is by design.
Programmatically I want to assign an eventhandler to every item that isnt a dropdown or a seperator
In VB I would do this, (works perfectly)
[Code]...
"System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripItem' does not contain a definition for 'DropDownItems' and no extension method 'DropDownItems' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripItem' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)"
I am still developing this function, but here is what I am intending it to do. This function will accept an Object, then try to determine its type. There are a specific set of types I am looking for: Integer, Boolean, Date, String. What I have so far is pretty privative, but it seems to be working so far:
Private Function DataType(ByVal entry As Object) As ValueType Try If IsNumeric(entry) Then
I can't figure out how to determine the type of an object in a collection. I want to do a For Each ... Next loop over the items in the DropDownItems collection of a ToolStripMenuItem. For those items that are ToolStripMenuItems themselves I want to take some kind of action. (The collection can contain other types of items, such as ToolStripSeparators). So I need to say something like: If Typeof(item) = ToolStripMenuItem Then .
I have a class C(Of T). I want to determine if some given value has type C, regardless of what T is. For example, I might want to determine if a value is a strongly-typed list, regardless what type of items the list stores. I just need to know how to do it in VB.net. In Java the syntax is like this: var result = obj instance of Gen2<?>;
If my Category and Forum selection is incorrect I am sorry and feel free to move it. I'd like to have the users input in the message box that will show. For example: There is a textbox and the user puts in their name as Bob. Then the message box would be: What my main goal is, is being able to include the users input they type inside the textbox inside the message box.
I'm interested in having a generic 'Try Catch' clause, with some case statements or if/than statements within the Catch part so that I can handle different error types differently. some way to get ex.Errorcode or ex.ErrorType that differentiates the different errors to a unique value.
How can this be done?
Try
'some code taht will throw an error'
Catch ex AS Exception If ex.ErrorCode = 20 then ' Do something'
I have a small piece of code that iterates through the controls collection on a panel (below) Everything works fine until I want to focus on a control that doesn't support the selectall method i.e. a datetimepicker. Is there any way of determining the type of control and not call the selectall method when the type is datetimepicker. All my other controls support it so that's the only one I need to exclude.
Dim onThisTable as String ="Name" Private Sub skill_mouseHover(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button1.MouseHover, button2.MouseHover, panel1.MouseHover, panel2.MouseHover, pbox1.MouseHover
[Code]....
Now I wish to give onThisTable a different value depending what the user pass over (panel or a pbox or a button) but I cant find what is the correct way to compare what type it is ...
Private Sub skill_mouseHover(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button1.MouseHover, button2.MouseHover, panel1.MouseHover, panel2.MouseHover, pbox1.MouseHover
